OWNER’S INSTRUCTION MANUALTENPOINT CROSSBOW TECHNOLOGIES®

To make certain you do not void your warranty or injure yourself and/or others,do not assemble or operate your crossbow without first reading this manual.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONSFollow these strict and absolute safety rules when cocking, loading, pointing,and shooting your crossbow.• Never allow your fore-grip hand’s fingers or thumb to move above the barrel’s

flight deck or into the bow string or cables’ release path (photos 1, 2, & 3, & 4). If you do, you will injure yourself severely when you fire your crossbow.

• Do not cock your crossbow until you are ready to load it.• Do not move the trigger’s safety knob to the FIRE (red dot) position until you are

ready to shoot.• Always point your crossbow in a safe direction. Never point it at or toward another

person or never at or toward anything you do not intend to shoot.• When target shooting, set up in a safe, open area with a proper target and backstop.• Make certain others are well behind you when shooting. People standing beside you

are vulnerable to injury if, among other things, a string, cable, or limb were to break.• Make sure the trigger’s safety is in the FIRE (red dot) position before cocking your

crossbow (photos 5 & 8). Neither the string latch nor the safety will engage if youattempt to cock your crossbow with the safety in the SAFE (white dot) position. Thebow will appear to be cocked while the string is held in place by the Dry-Fire-Inhibitor(photos 6 & 9). When you cock your crossbow correctly, the trigger’s safety willautomatically move from the FIRE (red dot) position to the SAFE (white dot) position (photos 7 & 10).

• Do not fire your crossbow if branches or other obstructions block its limbs’ release path. Doing so can be extremely dangerous.

• Be certain of your intended target before shooting. Watch out for hunters in camouflage clothing.

• Your crossbow was designed for hunting and target shooting only. Do not use it for any other purpose. It is a dangerous and deadly weapon.

• Carefully examine your crossbow and arrows for worn, loose, damaged, or missing parts every time you use them.

• Do not use your crossbow if it is not in top working condition. Follow the maintenanceand operating instructions in this manual.

• If you have any questions regarding the operation or operating condition of yourcrossbow, immediately contact TenPoint Crossbow Technologies’ Customer Service Department at 330.628.9245.

• Do not alter any of your crossbow components or accessories. Doing so will void your warranty and may be dangerous.

• Do not attempt to adjust your crossbow’s draw weight or to change its cables, limbs, or strings without proper tools and instruction. Have a qualified TenPointprofessional perform these tasks. Improper installation may result in poor crossbowperformance or injury.

• Do not use crossbow arrows that do not meet TenPoint Crossbow Technologies’specifications (See Use the Correct Arrow later in this manual). In particular, do not use excessively light arrows. Arrows and broadhead/field point combinations weighingless than 415 grains may damage your crossbow limbs or cause injury.

• When cocking your crossbow, hold the bowstring firmly with all four fingers of bothhands and do not allow it to slip free. If the bowstring slips out of your hands or if anarrow is not solidly in contact with it when you fire the crossbow, a dry-fire can occur. A dry-fire is dangerous and can severely damage the bow and/or cause injury.

• Do not transport or store your crossbow while it is cocked or loaded. • Make sure broadheads are safely covered by using a proper quiver. • Do not carry your crossbow while climbing up or down a tree.

Hoist and lower the crossbow –unloaded– with a rope or heavy cord.• Always wear a safety belt when hunting from a treestand.

Make sure the trigger’s safety is in theforward, FIRE (red dot) position beforecocking your crossbow.

If you try to load the crossbow while thesafety is in the rear, SAFE (white dot)position, the bowstring will be held by theDFI™ and only appear to be cocked.

When you cock your crossbow correctly, thesafety will automatically move to the rear,SAFE (white dot) position, and the stringlatch will engage the string.

Insert the two larger bow assembly boltsin the bottom of the UL TriLoc barrel.

23

Continue to squeeze the top and bottom of the barrelwith your free hand when tightening the two smallerbow assembly bolts.

25

Squeeze the top and bottom of the barrel withyour free hand when tightening the two largebow assembly bolts.

20

Bow assembly in “medium” position.

21

Bow assembly in “long” position.

22

1. FOR ALL TENPOINT AND 6 POINT SERIES MODELS:Do not attach the bow assembly to the stock assembly without the cable saver.

• When viewing the cable saver from the side, with its “dish” (concave surface) facing up, notice that one of the two cable notches is positioned deeper into the cable saver (closer to the “dish”) than the other.

• Because the cables cross, one rests on top of the other. The top cable goes into the deeper of thetwo cable saver notches and the bottom cable goes into the shallower cable saver notch (photo 13),allowing the cable saver to maintain a relatively level position on top of the two cables.

• Before sliding the cable saver into the barrel’s cable slot, apply a drop of Flight Groove / Trigger Lube(HCA-111) to the “dish” (concave surface) or top of the cable saver (the part that comes in contact with the underside of the barrel’s arrow flight groove).

The bow string sits on the barrel’s flightdeck while the cable saver and cablesslide into the cable slot.

14

13

Make certain your cables go in the correct slots in your cable saver.

2. (TENPOINT SERIES CROSSBOWS): Attach the bow assembly and foot stirrup to the stock assembly as follows:

• Position the bowstring on the top of the barrel’s flight deckwhile you insert the cable saver (concave side up) and thecables into the barrel’s cable slot. The cable saver’s concavegroove (“dish”) should mate with the underside of the barrel’sarrow flight groove (photo 14).

• Insure that the pre-installed VIBRA-CUSH is in place with itscutout side facing the barrel (photo 15).

• Pull the bow assembly toward the trigger assembly until theriser location rod, protruding from the front of the barrel andthrough the VIBRA-CUSH, mates with the hole in the riser. Donot twist or rock the bow assembly to the extent that you rubthe cables along the slightly sharp edges of the barrel’s cableslot. You do not want to cut any of your cable strands. Pullingup and back slightly on the bow string may assist you inseating the bow assembly onto the stock assembly (photo 16).

• After you make sure the main assembly bolt’s locking setscrewis loosened, insert the main assembly bolt and tighten itsecurely. Do not over-tighten. (photo 17).

• Insert the foot stirrup into the two receiving holes located at thefront of the riser. Make sure the ”valley” in the stirrup’s foot padpoints down so that it does not block the arrow’s flight path.Tighten the setscrews located on the bottom of the riser to lockthe main assembly bolt and the foot stirrup in place (photo 18).

2. (6 POINT SERIES CROSSBOWS): Attach the bow assembly and foot stirrup to the stock assembly as follows:

• Position the bowstring on the top of the barrel’s flight deck whileyou insert the cable saver (concave side up) and the cables inbetween the top and bottom of the UL TriLoc barrel. The cablesaver’s concave groove (“dish”) should mate with the underside of the barrel’s arrow flight groove (photo 19).

• Slide the bow assembly (riser) between the top and bottom of thebarrel until it reaches the desired position (short, medium or long).Align the two bolt alignment notches (left and right side) and thetwo large holes on the bottom of the barrel with the four holes in the bottom of the riser for proper positioning (photos 20, 21 & 22).Note: You will notice the bottom barrel contains three sets of boltalignment notches (left and right side) that indicate the locations of the short, medium and long positions.

• Insert the two larger bow assembly bolts through the holes in thebottom of the UL TriLoc barrel that align with the riser (photo 23).Note: Squeezing the top and bottom of the barrel with your freehand when tightening the two large bow assembly bolts will helpwith alignment (photo 24).

• After making sure the two large bow assembly bolts are tightened,insert the two smaller bolts into the bolt alignment notches on theright and left of the barrel (these bolts attach through the bottom of the riser and the top of the barrel).

Note: Continue to squeeze the top and bottom of the barrel withyour free hand when tightening the two smaller bow assembly bolts (photo 25).

• If you choose to move the fore-grip to the long position (a matter of personal preference), remove the two fore-grip screws, align to desired position, re-insert them and tighten securely (photos 26 & 27 on next page).

• Attach the foot stirrup directly to the bottom section of the UL TriLoc barrel using the main assembly bolt (photo 28 on next page).Make sure the “valley” in the stirrups foot-pad points down so thatit does not block the arrow’s flight path.Note: If provided, mount the quiver bracket between the mainassembly bolt and the foot stirrup.

Three Bow Mounting Positions:

The cable saver’s concave groove (“dish”) should mate with the underside of the barrel’s arrow flight groove.

The best maintenance program begins by thoroughly checking for worn,loose, damaged, or missing parts every time you use your crossbow.

1. Immediately replace frayed or worn strings and cables. Keep your string and cablesmoist and extend their life with a high quality string wax such as TenPoint’s String andCable Wax (HCA-110). Do not apply string wax to the center serving, barrel, or trigger.You do not want wax to collect inside the trigger mechanism. Note: TenPoint Crossbow Technologies recommends changing both string and cablesevery three to four years under normal hunting/shooting conditions.

2. Use a high quality barrel or rail lubricant such as TenPoint Crossbow TechnologiesFlight Rail / Trigger Lube™ (HCA-111) to increase arrow speed, reduce friction, andextend the life of your center serving. Its unique metal penetrating characteristicsprovide optimum lubrication without an oily or greasy film.

To lubricate your flight rail, apply a drop of lube on each side of the rail. Then spread the lube the length of the barrel with your finger. Applying the flight rail lubricantapproximately every 75 to 100 shots should be adequate (photo 30). Note: Applying too much rail lube can break down your string serving.

Also regularly apply a drop of lube to your wheels and axles. Do not use heavy oil,grease, or substances similar to petroleum jelly to lubricate your crossbow partsbecause they will attract dust and grit and will work their way into your triggerhousing making it sluggish and perhaps inoperable in cold weather.

3. Keep your trigger dry and occasionally lubricate it:

• After using your crossbow in damp or wet conditions, dry its trigger parts by aiming a blow dryer through the various holes that lead to its interior parts. To avoid rusting,spray the interior of the trigger with WD-40 (or comparable material) before you applytrigger lube. *A crossbow with rusty trigger box parts will be extremely difficultto cock and will need to be sent back to the factory for cleaning and/or repair.

• PowerTouch™ trigger lubrication: Apply a drop of TenPoint Flight Groove / Trigger Lube (HCA-111) through thePowerTouch Trigger’s safety knob window while it is in both the SAFE (white dot)and FIRE (red dot) positions (photo 31).

Apply a drop just inside the closed end of the trigger’s string slot to lubricate thesafety slide and string latch (photo 32).

• RollerTouch™ and DropLatch™ trigger lubrication: Apply a drop of lube to the safety plunger shaft and allow it to work its way into thesafety mechanism (photo 33).

4. Do not expose your crossbow to excessive heat such as leaving it in an automobiletrunk on a hot day, a hot attic or storing it next to a furnace. Store it in a cool dryplace. Storing your crossbow in an unheated garage or damp basement may causesome of its parts to rust. Again, if you get your crossbow wet, make certain you dryand lubricate it before storing it.

5. To avoid stripping your main assembly bolt and limb bolts (on TenPoint Seriescrossbows), be certain to loosen their respective locking set screws before tighteningor loosening them (photo 34).

6. Only TenPoint Crossbow Technologies or an authorized repair facility may repair thePowerTouch, RollerTouch or DropLatch trigger mechanisms, and/or the ACUdraw orACUdraw 50 automated cocking units. Note: Unauthorized repairs may void your warranty. If repairs are necessary, contact the Customer Service Department at 330.628.9245 for a ReturnAuthorization Number and shipping and payment instructions.

Lubricate your flight rail approximately every 75 to 100 shots.

Lubricate the RollerTouch or DropLatch safety plunger shaft.

Apply a drop just inside the closed end of the trigger’sstring slot.

Loosen locking setscrews before turning limb bolts orthe main assembly bolt (on TenPoint Series crossbows).

Lubricate the PowerTouch trigger through the safetyslide window.

ASSEMBLY STEPS (cont.)

13 14

TenPoint’s patented DFI (Dry-Fire Inhibitor).

36

Practicing the following cocking, loading, and shooting procedures untilthey become second nature will insure that you shoot safely andaccurately every time:

1. Before cocking your crossbow, the safety knob or safety plunger must be set in the FIRE (red dot) position. Otherwise, the string latch will not engage or hold thebowstring. If you try to cock your crossbow with the safety in the SAFE (white dot)position, the DFI™ (Dry-Fire-Inhibitor) will catch and hold the string, making thecrossbow appear to be cocked. However, when the DFI - instead of the string latch -holds the bowstring, you cannot fire the crossbow. When cocked correctly, thebowstring will automatically set the safety and the string-latch will grasp and hold the string (See earlier photos 5-10).

2. With the underside of your crossbow facing your body, place your foot far enough into the stirrup so that it will not slip out when you draw the string.

3. Inaccurate cocking is the most frequent cause of inaccurate shooting. With anycrossbow, if the bowstring is not perfectly centered on the string latch when cocked,the bow will not shoot straight. To insure a perfect draw, grab the string along the sidesof the barrel with all four fingers of each hand. Slide the hands together so that theindex fingers of both are clearly against the sides of the barrel (our ACRA-ANGLE™barrel allows you to slide your index fingers along the barrel without getting pinched)(photo 35).

4. Using the sides of the barrel as your guide - and with a secure grip - pull the stringtoward the trigger assembly until you hear and feel the string latch and the safetyengage. Make certain the latch is holding the string securely before you relax your grip.The more aggressively you draw the string back, the easier it is to cock. Over time,you will develop a drawing technique that will make cocking the bow quite easy.

5. All TenPoint crossbow models are equipped with a patented (photo 36) DFI (Dry-Fire-Inhibitor), which prevents the bow from dry firing if an arrow is not loaded. Remember,if you try to cock the crossbow with the safety knob in the SAFE position, you will pullthe string past the DFI, which will hold the string in a position that appears as if it werecocked (see earlier photos 6 & 9). However, the bow will not be cocked, and it will notfire an arrow. To finish cocking the bow, move the safety to the FIRE (red dot) positionand firmly finish the cocking motion. You will feel and hear the string latch and thesafety engage as the safety knob or plunger moves into the SAFE (white dot) position.

6. Even though the safety automatically engages when you latch the string, makecertain it is in the SAFE position before putting your finger on the trigger. You cannotbe too careful. And, again, remember: never point a cocked crossbow at anything youdo not intend to shoot, and never release the safety until you are ready to shoot.

7. Place a TenPoint recommended crossbow arrow in the flight groove on the top of thebarrel. Slip a vane or feather into the flight groove, and slide the arrow back under thearrow retention spring until it rests solidly against the string. You are now ready to aim,release the safety, and shoot. Note: *Never allow your fore-grip hand’s fingers or thumb to move above thebarrel’s flight deck or into the bow string or cables’ release path (see earlierphotos 1, 2, 3, & 4). If you do, you will injure yourself severely when you fire your crossbow.

COCKING & LOADING

You may leave your crossbow cocked or loaded while you are in your tree stand or ground blind. Do not, however, leave it cocked or loaded overnight or while being transported.

The recommended - and the safest - way to unload your crossbow is to fire an arrow into a suitable target or rock-free ground. You should carry a practicearrow in your quiver when hunting and use it for unloading.

UNLOADING

Most TenPoint Crossbows are designed to be used with a scope and come witheither an adjustable or fixed 7/8-inch Weaver style dovetail scope mount. Regardlessof their sighting systems, all models are pre-sighted for 20-yards at the factory,meaning they are set accurately enough to hit a 7-inch pie tin at that distance. Most likely, you will want to fine-tune your sights at some point.

1.Pin sights: For precision sighting, work from a bench rest starting at a distance of 10-yards fromyour target. Make certain to keep your hands and fingers away from the cablesand the flight path of the string. Bench shooting invites misplacement of thefore-grip hand (See photos on page 1). Skip the 10-yard step if you are fine-tuningyour factory setting.

• Looking through your rear peep sight, center the sight pin in the peep and then align the pin with your target. Shoot several arrows at the same spot to establish a grouping pattern. If your arrows are not grouped tightly, review your shootingtechnique as one option. It is possible there could be a flaw in your technique.

• Loosen the elevation (up & down) lock-nut on your sight pin. Correct for elevation first since it is the easier of the two to correct (photo 37).

• To “zero” or correct your sight pin, one simple principle applies: always move the pinin the same direction as the error or impact point of your arrow grouping (i.e. followthe arrow). For example, if the impact point of your group is too low, lower the sightpin to correct the error. If you are shooting too high, raise the pin to correct the error.Once you make your correction, tighten the sight pin lock-nut securely.

• Repeat the same procedure to correct windage (right or left) error. Again, correct theerror by moving the pin in the direction of the error. That is, move the pin to the rightif you are shooting too far right, and vice-versa.

• Move back to 20-yards – or the yardage you want your pin set at - and repeat the procedure.

2.Scopes: All scopes contain windage and elevation adjustment dials. Remove their protectivecaps to adjust them. Their dials will indicate the direction in which to turn them tomake a particular correction.

• Make final sight adjustments on the multi-dot and multi-line scopes using the middledot or line at 30 yards. When sighted in at 30 yards, the top dot or line will beaccurate at 20 yards and the bottom dot or line will be accurate at 40 yards.

• Scope battery: A lithium 2032 size battery is used in the illuminated scopes. Lithium batteries have a shelf life (not in use) of up to ten years. They are designed to operate in temperatures far below that of other power cells. The practical life of the battery is determined by the number of hours used and the brightness intensitybeing used. Therefore, YOU SHOULD ALWAYS CARRY A SPARE BATTERY IN THE FIELD TO BE SAFE.

• Changing scope battery: The scope battery is located underneath the brightnessknob. Remove the battery cover by rotating the thin knurled outer edge counter-clockwise, while holding the thicker section of the brightness knob firmly betweenyour fingers. Replace battery (lithium 2032) and screw battery cover back on,clockwise, to re-install.

3.Rear Peep Sight:On the PowerTouch Fixed Mount, RollerTouch, and DropLatch trigger models, thepeep sight mounts in a fixed position directly to the top of the trigger box (scopemount must be removed first). Note: The Pro Elite will require a Peep & Pin Conversion Kit (HCA-071).

Some Pro Elite crossbow owners prefer an adjustable scope mount to the fixedposition system (photo 40). The scope mount that comes standard on this crossbowcan be converted into an adjustable system by purchasing and installing aRangeMaster™ Scope Adjustment Mechanism (HCA-086).

CONVERTING A FIXED POSITION ACCESSORY SCOPE MOUNT TO AN ADJUSTABLE MOUNT (ON PRO ELITE MODEL ONLY)

Most TenPoint crossbows, with or without scope, come pre-mounted with our Fixed 7/8-Inch Dovetail Scope Mount, HCA-078 (photo 41).

If you choose to use a peep and pin sighting system with these models, you mustpurchase the Rear Peep Sight (HCA-062) and Front Sight with Pin (HCA-041). Note: You will need to remove the 7/8-inch dovetail from the crossbow and mount the peep directly to the bow’s fixed sight bridge.

When a TITAN TL-4 or Slider is purchased without a scope it will come with a peep and pin sighting system. The peep is mounted on the bow’s fixed sight bridge(photo 42). If you wish to add a scope later you must purchase the Fixed 7/8-InchDovetail Scope Mount.

FIXED 7/8-INCH DOVETAIL SCOPE MOUNT

If your trigger’s safety is either too stiff or too sloppy you can adjust its tension. If the tension is too light, your safety may slip into the SAFE position after a shot,which is not desirable since you cannot successfully cock your crossbow from theSAFE position.

To adjust the tension in crossbows with a PowerTouch trigger, insert an Allen wrenchin the hole located on top of your dovetail (access the safety tension screw throughthe top of the sight bridge on RollerTouch or DropLatch trigger boxes). Locate theadjustment screw and turn it clockwise to increase the tension or counter-clockwiseto ease the tension (photo 43).

ADJUSTING THE SAFETY

Access the safety tension screw through the top of thedovetail on PowerTouch trigger boxes. Access the safetytension screw through the top of the sight bridge onRollerTouch or DropLatch trigger boxes.

43

The RollerTouch and DropLatch triggers differ from the patented PowerTouch triggerused in our top-of-the line crossbow models.

First, they contain an ambidextrous center-plunger safety mechanism that extendsfrom the rear of the trigger box when the trigger is in the SAFE position (photo 44).When you are ready to shoot your RollerTouch or DropLatch trigger, push the plungerforward to deactivate the safety. Like all models, the safety must be in the FIREposition to successfully cock the bow.

Second, the RollerTouch and DropLatch trigger’s string catch is a “down latch”,meaning that it drops below the surface of the barrel to release the string (thePowerTouch trigger’s string catch lifts up to release the string).

While both the RollerTouch and DropLatch trigger pull is smooth and crisp, andsuperior to other manufacturers’ “down latch” triggers, it is somewhat heavier than the 3 1/2 pound pull of the PowerTouch trigger.

You should maintain the RollerTouch and DropLatch triggers in the same manner as the PowerTouch trigger. That is, keep it clean, dry and lubricated.

ROLLERTOUCH™ & DROPLATCH™ TRIGGERS

Do not void your warranty. TenPoint Crossbow Technologies recommends using finished arrows weighing atleast 415 grains on all of our crossbows. Using less than the recommended weightcombinations can produce a dry-fire effect with your crossbow.

Aluminum ArrowsWhen shooting your crossbow, use our 2219 / XX75 aluminum 20-inch, TenPointCrossbow arrows equipped with a blunt nock (flat cap) and vanes or feathers.

Carbon ArrowsTenPoint also makes and recommends the 22/64ths carbon crossbow arrow fletchedwith plastic vanes, brass inserts and SuperBrite caps. They weigh in at 415 grainswith a 100 grain field point or broadhead (440 grains with a 125 grain point). Atthose weights, they perform comparably to TenPoint’s 2219 aluminum arrows.

USE THE CORRECT ARROW

The RollerTouch and DropLatch triggers have anambidextrous plunger safety and a “drop” or “down”latch bowstring catch.

44

TenPoint’s two top-of-the-line crossbows, PRO ELITE and ELITE are equipped with theinnovative GripSafety (patent pending). The GripSafety is a secondary safety buttonpositioned on the side of the crossbow’s fore-grip (photo 38). The GripSafety requiresthe shooter to hold the fore-grip properly - and safely below the surface of the flightrail while shooting the crossbow.

Operating Instructions: To shoot a GripSafety-equipped TenPoint crossbow, shoulder the bow, slide thetrigger’s brass safety knob forward to the “FIRE” position, depress and hold the GripSafety button, and squeeze the trigger. If the trigger safety is engaged “SAFE”position and/or if the GripSafety is not depressed, you cannot pull the trigger or fire the crossbow.

Right-handed shooters will depress the GripSafety button with the left thumb (photo39). Left-handed shooters will depress it with either the index or middle finger.

Note: Left-handed shooters can have the GripSafety converted. Please contact theCustomer Service Department at 330.628.9245 for a Return Authorization Number toreturn the crossbow for conversion.

Only qualified professionals with proper tools and equipment should attempt to make repairsor adjustments to TenPoint Crossbow Technologies crossbows or should attempt to changecables and/or strings. The following cable/string-twist chart represents a good starting pointfor achieving optimum poundage and performance when changing cables and strings.

Note: The section of the cable yokes that attach next to the lower limbs on quad-limb bows or next to the bottom side of solid-limb bowsshould be twisted approximately four (4) times prior to attachment. This adjustment should prevent limb-twist while cocking the crossbow.

Note: When changing string & cables, do not mix Fast Flight with D75 material – Fast Flight stringmust be used with Fast Flight cables and D75 string (camo) must be used with D75 cables (camo).

TENPOINT CROSSBOW TECHNOLOGIES’INTEGRATED AUTOMATED COCKING DEVICE

U.S. Patent No’s. 6,095,128; 6,286,496 B1 & 6,913,007

ACUdraw®

All TenPoint crossbows can be ordered with our patented ACUdraw automated cockingunit already installed or they can be retrofitted with one any time after purchase.

The premier cocking unit available anywhere today, the ACUdraw makes crossbowhunting and shooting safer and more accessible. Weighing just over one pound, itfeatures a gear reduction mechanism so effective that anyone with normal handstrength can crank it with one finger. Even if you have the strength to draw today’smodern crossbows, the ACUdraw offers you the advantages of cocking your bowconsistently straight every time and cocking it effortlessly and safely from a seatedposition in your treestand.

Compactly built into the crossbow’s butt stock, it does not interfere with shooting. In fact, most ACUdraw owners say it enhances shooting accuracy by affording acomfortable and stable platform to position the side of the shooter’s chin against.

It is also perfect for almost anyone – male or female, young or old who, for whateverreason, cannot cock a crossbow.

The ACUdraw is a powerfully built yet sensitive mechanism. To avoid damaging theunit or injuring yourself or others, heed these warnings. Carefully read the entire set of instructions before operating your ACUdraw.

• Don’t use your ACUdraw to uncock your crossbow. Carry a practice arrow that you can shoot into a target or into the ground.

• Don’t operate your ACUdraw if your draw cord is frayed or worn.

• Don’t crank your ACUdraw without first engaging it’s safety lever.

• Don’t crank your ACUdraw in reverse when the claw is fully extended or when it is in its storage position.

• Don’t start cranking your ACUdraw until you are certain the crank and the claw are seated securely in their respective ready-to-cock positions.

• Don’t over-crank your ACUdraw.

• Don’t allow the crank to slip out of your hand.

• Don’t forget to return the claw to its storage position after cocking the crossbow.

• Don’t place your foot in the stirrup when operating your ACUdraw.

• Don’t allow the ACUdraw cord to get hung up on any portion of the crossbow, scopeor other accessories while cranking the ACUdraw unit.

• Don’t over-crank the ACUdraw unit when returning the claw to its storage position.

• Once the crossbow is cocked, it is dangerous to release the safety pawl (lever)without first placing just enough forward (clockwise) pressure on the crankhandle to relieve the tension on the winch (approximately 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch).Without letting go of the crank, disengage the safety and unwind the crank nomore than 2 1/2 to 3 turns to relieve the bow string tension before removing thecrank. With the tension relieved and the crank removed, do not forget to returnthe claw to its storage position. (See photos 7,8 & 9).

WARNINGS AT A GLANCE

19 20

Don’t allow the draw cord to get hung-up on any part ofthe crossbow, scope or accessories.

Engage the safety pawl, insert the crank,and begin cranking.

Notice that the string is under heavy tension once thebow is cocked.

To avoid damaging your ACUdraw once your bow is cocked, apply asmall amount of additional clockwise force to the crank (approximately1/4 inch to 1/2 inch), disengage the safety pawl, and unwind themechanism 2 1/2 to 3 turns to relieve the string tension.

The Operating Precautions are as equally important as theOperating Instructions. Read these to insure that you donot injure yourself or damage your ACUdraw.

• Always check your draw cord prior to using your ACUdraw toinsure that it is not worn or frayed. If it shows any wear, DOT NOTuse the mechanism. Contact your dealer or our Customer ServiceDepartment at 330.628.9245 to have it replaced.

• Never crank the ACUdraw in reverse (counter-clockwise) when the claw is fully extended or in its storage position. Doing so willdamage the retraction spring.

• Never crank the ACUdraw with the safety pawl disengaged. If the crank were to slip out of you hand, it would spin out wildlyand could cause property damage or bodily injury.

• Never use your ACUdraw to un-cock your crossbow. It is dangerousto do so because you must disengage the safety pawl to crankcounter-clockwise. The safest way to un-cock your crossbow is tofire a spare arrow equipped with a practice point into a suitabletarget or into soft ground.

• Never place your foot in the stirrup when cranking the ACUdraw.While the draw cord can hold over 700 pounds of weight, it issubject to fraying and cutting. If it were to break while cocking themechanism, the claw would shoot forward with extreme force.

• Never over-crank the mechanism. Stop cranking the mechanismimmediately after the trigger’s safety knob or plunger moves to SAFE(white dot) to avoid damaging the crossbow and/or over-stressing

the draw cord. The ACUdraw’s gear-reduction mechanism is sostrong that it can lift the trigger box from its mount in the barreland/or break the draw cord if you over-crank it.

• If you choose to crank your ACUdraw with a battery-poweredscrewdriver or drill, select a variable speed model that operatesbetween 4.2 and 12 volts and has a clutch or low torque setting. Do not use an excessively powerful battery-powered model or adirect current, 110 volt model. While the draw cord is more thanadequate to handle normal use, a high-power drill can overpowerthe cord and the entire unit.

• Once your crossbow is cocked, never attempt to release the safetypawl without first applying a small amount of clockwise pressure tothe crank (approximately 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch). Once you disengagethe safety pawl, carefully unwind the mechanism no more than 2 1/2 to 3 turns (the only time you may crank the mechanism inreverse) to relieve the string tension before removing the crank andreturning the claw to its storage position. Continuing to unwind themechanism more than 2 1/2 to 3 turns after the string tension isrelieved will damage your ACUdraw.

• Never leave the claw in the trigger box’s string slot after cocking the crossbow. Always return it to its storage position. If you forget to remove it and inadvertently load an arrow and fire the crossbow,the bowstring will wildly launch the claw (shoot the claw), causingpotentially severe property damage and bodily injury.

• Operate your TenPoint ACUdraw with care. Like any qualityprecision instrument, it must be maintained and operated properly to remain in good and safe working condition.

• Prior to each use, examine your ACUdraw carefully to make certain it is in good working condition. If it requires repair and/ormaintenance, contact TenPoint’s Customer Service Department at 330.628.9245 for a Return Authorization Number (RA) and return instructions.

• Keep your ACUdraw oiled and dry when not in use. Avoid getting themechanism wet. If it does get wet, remove the covers (photo 1) dryit (you may want to use a hair dryer), and use a high grade lubricantsuch as TenPoint’s Flight Rail/Trigger Lube (HCA-111) to keep itoperating smoothly and free from rust.

• Use TenPoint’s String/Cable Wax (HCA-110) to wax the draw cord.At first sign of cord wear, do not use the ACUdraw. Contact yourdealer or TenPoint’s Customer Service Department at 330.628.9245to arrange to replace the cord.

The ACUdraw® is protected under U.S. Patent No’s. 6,095,128; 6,286,496 B1 & 6,913,007

WARNING !Study these directions carefully. You can severely injure yourself and/ordamage your ACUdraw, if you do not operate it according to these instructions.

1. If your draw cord (photo 2 – item F) and safety pawl (lever) (B) are under tension whilethe claw (photo 1) is in its storage position (E), first relieve that tension by inserting thecrank (D) in the drive hex (C) and applying a slight amount of clockwise pressure(approximately 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch) (photo 3). Then push the safety pawl lever down todisengage it. Once disengaged, remove the crank, lift the claw from its storage positionbehind the trigger box, pull it over the trigger box assembly, and securely connect itsstring slots (H) to the bowstring (photo 4).

The claw’s guide ridge (G) located at the front of the claw will fit into the barrel’s flightdeck groove and keep the claw centered as you crank the mechanism. Make certain yourdraw cords do not get hung-up on your scope, the PowerTouch trigger’s brass safetyknobs or any other part of the crossbow (photo 5).

2. Notice that the draw cord passes completely through the claw, insuring that the clawremains centered as you crank the mechanism. This self-centering feature promotesshooting accuracy because it makes the mechanism cock your bowstring consistentlystraight time-after-time.

3. Lift the safety pawl to engage it. Insert the crank, or a battery operated drill or screwdriver(equipped with a 1/4 - inch socket and a clutch or low torque setting) in the drive hex (photo 1).

4. Stand the bow erect on its foot stirrup or place it on a table or platform in front of you and firmly hold the butt of the stock in your left hand. Note: for left-handed cranking, simply turn the bow around so that the crank engages thehex on your left-hand side.

5. With your safety knob or plunger in the FIRE (red dot) position, begin cranking theACUdraw clockwise (or powering it forward with a battery operated drill or screwdriveron a low torque setting). It takes approximately 20 to 23 turns to cock the crossbow. You will know the crossbow is cocked when you both see the trigger safety move to theSAFE (white dot) position and when you hear the string latch engage the bow string (a double-clicking sound). You must stop cranking at this time.

6. Once cocked, you can see that the claw holds the bowstring under tension rather than the trigger’s string latch holding the bowstring (photo 7). You must relieve that tensionbefore attempting to disengage the safety or removing the claw.

7. To relieve the tension, place a small amount of additional clockwise pressure on the crank (approximately 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch), and disengage the safety pawl (photo 8).Trying to disengage the safety pawl without first relieving the pressure can damage themechanism. Hold the crank securely as you disengage the safety pawl. Unwind the crankno more than 2 1/2 to 3 turns to relieve the string pressure. Continuing to unwind theACUdraw after the string pressure is relieved will damage the mechanism. Removethe crank only after the mechanism is no longer under pressure (photo 9).

8. Slide the claw out of the trigger box until it clears the arrow retention spring, and return itto its storage position (photo 10). An internal retraction spring will automatically spool thedraw cord back inside the mechanism. The claw holder mounted behind the trigger box isdesigned so that the claw will not dislodge even when you turn the crossbow upsidedown. *Over-cranking the ACUdraw unit when returning the claw to its storageposition can result in breaking the claw resting place. One to two CLICKS arenormally sufficient to secure the claw to the claw holder.

9. You are now ready to load your crossbow with an arrow.

Once you relieve the stringtension on your cockedcrossbow and remove thecrank, you can slide theclaw forward and return it to its storage position. DO NOT over-tighten!

CAUTIONMake sure the front of your crossbow’s arrow retention

spring is not sitting so low that the ACUdraw’s stringclaw catches it instead of passing under it. If thespring is sitting too low, bend it up just enough for

the claw to pass under it.

After 2 1/2 to 3 reverse turns you can see and feel that thepressure is off the claw. You can then remove the crank.

ACUdraw 50®

The ACUdraw 50 takes the conventional crossbow rope-cocker - whichreduces a crossbow’s draw weight by half - to a new, user-friendly, andhassle-free level.

The ACUdraw 50 is mounted in the butt stock and uses an innovativeretraction spring system that automatically reels the draw cords andstring hooks back inside its housing after each use. To avoid any noisy ordangling parts when not in use, the handles quietly hold in place againstthe sides of the butt stock with powerful magnets (see photo 1).

ACUDRAW 50 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS In a standing position, place the crossbow in front of you with its foot stirrup on theground. Place one of your feet securely inside the foot stirrup and pull out both cordhandles far enough so that you can grasp and hold the string hooks between yourthumbs and index fingers with the open end of the hooks facing your thumbs (seephoto 2). Both of the handles need to be pulled out at the same time and lengthto keep the unit from jamming up.

Reach down and position the hooks in place on each side of the barrel. Attach thehooks from the underside of the bow string. As you grab the handles, hold the hooksflush against the sides of the barrel with your index fingers to insure that you willdraw the bowstring straight (see photo 3).

Simultaneously stand and pull up on the draw handles until the crossbow is fullycocked (see photo 4).

With the handles in your hands, reach down and remove the hooks from the bowstring with your index fingers and thumbs. Retracting both sides at the same time,turn the open end of the hooks to face out as you allow the retraction spring to reelthe cord and hooks back inside the housing (see photo 5).

With the handle magnets facing one another, place the handles in their storage positionon the sides of the butt stock (the magnets will attract each other through the stock).

ACUDRAW 50 MAINTENANCE & CAREThe ACUdraw 50 should be relatively maintenance free. However, you should regularlycheck to make certain your draw cords are not frayed. If the system does not operatetrouble free, call Customer Service at (330) 628-9245 to explain the difficulty.

WARRANTYThe ACUdraw 50 is covered under the same warranty terms as the ACUdraw. See the back page of your crossbow owner’s manual for the warranties.
